Polkahero Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 I just purchased a Leslie speaker and this 1147 kit is included with the speaker. I don't need it but I'd like to know what this would be used for and how I would go about testing it to make sure it works when I go to pick up the speaker. Ignore the Combo Preamp on the left as I already know how that works (don't need that either as I have a Trek II universal preamp). Thanks!

jpgxk3 Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Hi, it is used to connect an organ with an 11 pin output to a 6 pin 147 amp in the Leslie. HS xk3, 3c or Crumar Mojo (some had 11 pin outs) or others. takes care of power supply, audio and switching in one box. Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to borrow my buddy's Hammond XK5 which has the 11 pin output and use that to test the 1147 kit as well as the Combo Preamp.

Aussie_Chicago Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Just make sure everything is plugged in before powering up 1147 and turning on the xk5 . You can blow the opamp in the 1147 by pugging into the organ when its already powered on. BTW, if somebody else already did this, the opamp is replaceable, pretty easy fix if you can solder. Symptoms of this is the leslie works , speed etc, but no sound. Also if its low on volume, there is a gain adjustment on the 1147 , just dial it up with a jewlers screwdriver. 1 Quote "Ive been playing Hammond since long before anybody paid me to play one, I didn't do it to be cool, I didnt do it to make a statement......I just liked it " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm having this problem currently with the 1147. Could you help me understand which component is the opamp? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
